CHART OF THE DAY: The PC Industry Implodes Before Our Eyes - Business Insider

Paul Krugman throws cold water on Thatcher tributes
Thatcher closed down much dying industry, and she kept the lid on inflation while ending stop go for a good while. Brown was much worse of course and almost completely mistaken in his tolerance for house price inflation. Maggy was very good for the short run economy despite what Krugman writes! The British unions were abusive and overdid the job protective role at a time when no one really cared!

Thatcher rules for sure! Hip hip hurrah!

‘Obama phones’ subsidy program draws new scrutiny on the Hill - The Washington Post
The American rich seem to think that they are the victims? Perhaps the subsidies for the rich should be finally removed ... all the tax advantages, such as lowly taxed gasoline prices, that are unfair to those that use public transit!

Church of England rejects blessings for same-sex couples | Society | The Guardian
So much jibber jabber from the Church of England, bless it, and so foolish.
I bless same sex couples and you can too.
Lets all bless them.
After all the church is only a representative of the supreme love of God and God blesses them as well!
The church should be big enough to see it's folly to fail to recognise the extraordinary love opportunity and productive bond that potentially exists in the love between gays.

It's obviously not only guns! Rifles don't help much when there are millions of other ways to hand to kill! The problem is in the mentality of the perpetrator who feels it is his or her best option?

Margaret Thatcher helped to put the Square Mile on top | Mail Online
But, would it have caused so much grief. I seriously think Thatcher got this one wrong, and very very wrong! Banks should not have been allowed into mismatched lending. That was the horrible, horrible mistake!
